Given:
MgBr + HSO₄ -> HBr +MgSO₄

I react Zn metal with the mix to get a new product. Will a gas be given off, what is it ? What is the new balance equation??


I dont know what happens to the Zn on the products side.


Please help?? I do not know where to add the Zn.



given 150g MgBr and 150gHSO₄
500mL dH₂O

I have found:

1.44molMgBr
1.55molHSO₄

2.8Molar (MgBr) 3.1Molar (HSO₄)

we need 139.9gHSO₄ to react with 160.82gMgBr.

139.0gHSO₄ is the limiting reactant

The amount of product is:

116.83gHBr
185.57gMgSO₄
